George Mason -2


Think Mason will win by double digits on the road here.. Huge backcourt edge solid front court edge.. Much better depth.
440 to win 400



Manhattan -2
Manhattan better in all aspects of my ratings think they win by 10.
660 to win 600


Kent +6 bought the hook
Think Kent wins game outright..

600 to win 500

I just dont get the buying points thing. it is hard enough to win at this much less paying extra juice. You think you may win outright but you want to lay extra juice to get 1/2 point? Not trying to bash by any means but I dont see the value in doing that, especially in hoops. It certainly isnt as bad as these guys buying points left and right in foots to get off full numbers (like it is worth the extra juice to go from -3 to -2.5, aside from the fact it lands on 3 something like 7% of the time).

Your point is well taken. I do it quite frequently and am not burned on it nearly as often as I am burned by the hook in hoops. Definitely not for everyone, but I'm of the mentality that the Juice won't come into play because the play is a winner. Kind of a superstition I guess or paying an insurance policy when You know you don't need it.
Too each his own:D
